It Isn't Freezing*

Lyrics from Tiktok

It isn't freezing, it isn’t anything they said

And 'tis the season, that's so much better in my head

A lucky childhood, a kind of wild good

That makes what I do become an "I could"

Put in the effort, a lion’s share of what it was

But I have never felt such disparity, because

With every winter, another splinter

Cuts through me deeper, intent to injure

It would take a miracle

And I mean walk on water

Thousands fed

Fly o'er rooftops, raise the dead

A real life, my-eyed miracle

For lights to glow and snow to fall

And my long-splinterеd heart to thaw again
